Air Compressor

Product Overview

An Air Compressor is a mechanical machine that draws atmospheric air, compresses it to a higher pressure, and delivers the compressed air for industrial and field operations. Compressed-air systems are widely used for pneumatic tools, instrumentation, cleaning, drilling support, maintenance and other oil & gas operations.

For Driscoil's equipment catalogue, air compressors can be offered in electric-driven, diesel-driven, rotary screw, reciprocating and centrifugal configurations, depending on the required pressure, airflow and duty cycle.
